Etymology of MORE ILLUSTRATING

The phrase "more illustrating" is not a standalone word with its own etymology. Rather, it is the combination of two separate words: "more" meaning "greater in amount, number, or degree" and "illustrating" derived from the verb "illustrate", meaning "to clarify or explain by using examples, comparisons, or other means".

The word "more" comes from the Old English word "māra", which is related to the Old Norse word "meiri" and the Middle Dutch word "mēr", all conveying the sense of "greater" or "larger".

The verb "illustrate" is derived from the Latin word "illustrare", which means "to light up" or "to make bright". In English, it originally referred to the decorative embellishment of manuscripts, gradually encompassing the sense of adding images or visual representations to clarify or enhance understanding.
